Connect Diesel Energy Storage Power Grid 
Green Car Congress
MARCH 20, 2018
A UPS-led consortium has deployed new smart-grid charging technology in London that overcomes the challenge of simultaneously recharging an entire fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) without the need for the expensive upgrade to the power supply grid. A key part of this initiative is the use of onsite energy storage batteries.

The partners installed a prototype battery storage system made up of automotive batteries with a total connected load of approximately 1 megawatt (MW) and a storage capacity of 750 kWh at the test centre in Kamenz. In the power grid, generation and consumption need to be balanced in order to maintain a frequency of 50 Hertz.

The growth of global industrialization, increasing demand on energy resources and rising carbon emissions are deepening the need for energy infrastructure that is increasingly green, distributed, flexible, and resilient. One example is diesel and natural gas generators, that are plugged into local transformers.
Cars That Think
SEPTEMBER 16, 2023
The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.
